In fairness, there wasn’t a big loss of the vaccinated either (seems to be smaller, but still a lot of people)… but there was a successful looting of the poor and enrichment of elites

    You have a lot of misunderstandings here. The things people did to combat COVID, especially the social distancing and mask wearing, were even more effective against the flu.

    And though people do die of the flu, COVID dwarfed those deaths. Here’s a chart showing flu deaths and COVID deaths for the first couple years.

    We had a chance of getting herd immunity by getting the population vaccinated and eliminating it like polio, but anti-science politics squashed that idea.

      mask wearing I doubt is that effective; “social distancing” certainly.

      there’s no way to confirm those deaths are all “covid” related; I concede the stress of a “pandemic” as well as impoverishment created by artificial lockdown mandates indeed probably did create temporary worse outcomes though.

      polio was tackled more by sanitation than vaccines, it is contrarily argued: https://www.organiclifestylemagazine.com/how-plumbing-not-vaccines-eradicated-disease

        Okay, the number of excess deaths (more deaths than usual) had a curve like that - what do you think was responsible? At the time that people were filling hospitals with respiratory issues and testing positive for COVID? Why do you think doctors were putting COVID as the cause of death?

        You seem like someone who has accepted a narrative that COVID wasn’t so bad and are willing to ignore the mounds and mounds of data that says otherwise.

        Nobody cares what you doubt whatsoever because you’ve shown yourself to be deliriously stupid throughout this entire thread. “Here is a source with a not-at-all ominously bland name proving ALL OF SCIENCE AND MEDICINE WRONG” says the moron.

        Three decades ago I learnt that covering your mouth when you cough helps stop spreading germs. I was a toddler and you still haven’t reached that level of intelligence. Reading a children’s science book would blow your tiny mind.
